  1. Lock DNS records | Disable Reset to default

    We have the "dmarc"- record in our template having a placeholder for the value. At the time the Record "dmarc" was edited by adding the value, mostly every DNS record is no more in the state of the DNS template.

    Therefore it is important to have some policies:
    - The button "Reset to default" can be disabled on Admin and Reseller level.
    - The button "Master/*****" can be disabled. Usually this functionality is not needed.
    - For certain very important DNS setting, a "Lock" button might make sense. If applied, this record can not be edited anymore by…

  2. Hide Caching (nginx) option in WP-Toolkit

    The controls in the Tools section of WP-Toolkit should be customizable to allow hiding Caching (nginx) so that customers do not enable it randomly. The ability to enable nginx caching should still be available from Apache & nginx settings.

    Thank you for your idea! We understand that this idea originates from the fact that customers sometimes enable nginx-caching without realizing what this option does to their website. Potentially creating issues with their own website. 


    We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.


    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  3. OpenSSH server support in Plesk for Windows

    SFTP (FTP over SSH protocol) Support would come in handy for users who want a more secure way to transfer their files to and from their hosting account. We, as a hosting company, have received many requests for a more secure way to handle file transfers than the classic FTP(S) protocol on Windows Server.

    Newer versions of Windows have built-in OpenSSH server functionality, I think it would be nice to integrate this in the Plesk end-user Panel in a way that users can use SFTP with their account username and (maybe?) configure SSH keys for their accounts for a more…

  4. Improvements to Info and Statistics menu

    Please add customization options to the Tools & Settings > Information & Statistics menu. Currently, the displayed values can't be adjusted to be displayed in a certain format (like Mb/Gb/Tb), but it would be nice to have such a feature.

  5. WordPress Smart Updates notifications

    For now, the only way to manage WordPress Smart Updates notifications is to enable/disable them at all under Tools & Settings > Notifications > WordPress application updates.

  7. Missing option : "Include in the traffic usage calculation" (web, email, ftp...)

    At the moment, traffic calculation is common between all categories:
    Websites, ftp traffic and emails.

    In my case, I would like to ignore email traffic.
    Example:
    - Have 50GB/month traffic quota, I wish to apply this quota to everything except mail traffic
    - Customer has currently 30GB web traffic and 30GB mail traffic
    - Customer receives overuse mails and there is nothing I can do about it.

    I suggest the following

    In "Server Statistics Settings", there is already an option called "Include in the disk space usage calculation".

    You could add the same option for traffic: "Include in the…

  8. Let's encrypt plugin should set TTL=30secs when modifying _acme DNS registers

    When the Let's Encrypt plugin within SSL It! modifies the _acme register on the DNS zone it sets the TTL to the default amount of time by default the zone has.

    I think the _acme registers should be as low as 30 seconds to avoid problems when reissuing certs with the caches of the DNS servers.

    I think it's one easy to do modification.

    Hi @NetVicious. Thank you for your feature request. However, it seems that this is related to a rare experience where a TTL did not work in some specific case. We are seeing thousands of transactions where TTL is 3600 and there has never been any issue reported on it. If you are experiencing a specific case where the default setting has not worked correctly for you, we ask you to please open a ticket with support so that the issue can be investigated on your server.

  10. Limiting access to Plesk panel by specifying the allowed dst addresses

    It is required to control the accessibility of the Plesk panel by having an option to permit access only by the specified server's IP's. For example:
    Let's say there are 172.16.1.10 & 172.16.1.11 IPs on the server both assigned with a domain name panel.example.com.
    Option "Specified domain" is set in Tools&Settings > Customize Plesk URL.
    Any other IP address on that should NOT serve the login procedure.

    However, when this server has a full subnet 172.16.1.32/27 added as the secondary IP addresses, it is possible to open any of them via the Web Browser, afterward press "Log in to…

  11. create folders when connecting to new mail account with Outlook 2013, or have an option to create standard folders with account creation

    Outlook 2013 appears to be unable to configure its folder settings properly when it connects to a new and blank imap account.
    (It locally creates its own Sent folder on the top level and then isn't able to synchronize.)
    Outlook 2013 DOES configure itself properly when the standard folders have been created by a less stupid program, like Roundcube or Thunderbird. (To fix Outlook after that, 1.) move the unsynced messages somewhere safe 2.) delete the corresponding .ost while Outlook is closed or just delete and recreate that whole account.)

    It would help greatly if Plesk could have an option…

  12. do more realistic checks for ressource shortages during Plesk upgrades.

    customers quite often run into unneeded problems when upgrading Plesk.

    autoinstaller reports like this:

    Parallels Panel pre-upgrade check...
    WARNING: Virtuozzo Container limit "tcpsndbuf" was exceeded 2731471 times.
    WARNING: Limits set by Parallels Virtuozzo Container are exceeded. Please, check http://kb.odin.com/en/112522 for more details.

    I unterstand that the installer wants to avoid running into ressource shortage during upgrade, but I don't think general warnings about any past ressource problems for irrelevant ressources are helpful here. My assumtion is that all UBC ressources which have any failcount > 0 are shown, no matter what it is or how the usage is right now.

  14. Spam Filter - option to move spam-positives to a spam folder on the mail server

    At present it seems the only options in dealing with emails the spam filter detects as spam are either (1) tag messages their subject lines, or (2) delete them completely at source.

    Our experience is that (1) leaves a lot of undersirable junk still incoming to the email client programs, and (2) is very dangerous as emails from new customers can suffer a false positive and disappear forever, leaving us with no clue we just lost a customer / sale, or why!

    Having a third option to move all spam-positives to a folder on the mail server would give us…

  15. Add an ability to apply changes from a service plan to existing subscriptions

    Some settings, such as Retain web and traffic statistics are not applied to existing subscriptions after changing those in the service plan. It would be useful to apply them in one place instead of making changes in every subscription.

  18. separate user group for iwpd users

    For plesk on windows

    It would be helpful if plesk created a separate user group for all IWPD users.

    That would allow me to set specific security settings to that group.

    See this kb article as an example: https://www.plesk.com/kb/support/access-to-cmd-exe-and-powershell-exe-how-to-allow-it-to-subscription-users-and-deny-to-iis-users-on-a-plesk-server/

    Because the IWPD user and account user are in the same psacln group we cannot use that group to block cmd or powershell access (since the domain account apparently needs to be able to run those commands).

    The workaround revolves around manually creating a new security group and manually adding those users to the new group, the obvious problem with that…

  19. To manage sub-domain and mail setting need inner part of each domain

    Currnetly when we add sub domain it will show as domain.subdomain.com separately in home page.

    if it inner part of domain like we manage Domain setting and DNS records. It will little good option to manage, Even we can identity how much subdomain we have to mange per site.

    Same thing for Mail, Mail ID and mailing list for the domain is working in separate area of Please it will also good if we can get only mail ids list from domain section.
